If you are thinking of enjoying a drink with health benefits this morning, do not throw money on a drink with green tea and ginger. Instead, boil some water and use a teabag.

Tea has been known to have health benefits for centuries, but most people do not know what it is.

 The battle between coffee and tea for supremacy over breakfast has become an unfair war over the years. While coffee contains an appreciable amount of caffeine, tea could become the most recommended drink in the morning.

So, if you are trying to make the switch from coffee to tea, we have noted 10 reasons why tea drinkers are healthier than those who opt for other alternatives.

1. Drinking green tea helps reduce abdominal fat.

Green tea is the most viable option at any time of the day due to the various health benefits; but if you want to lose weight, you should have green tea in your kitchen cupboard.

Green tea has been shown to stimulate metabolism, and because weight loss is linked to metabolism, green tea is revered for its ability to oxidize fat by up to 17% and improve weight loss by up to 77%.

2. Drinking green tea improves tooth health.

Green tea will relieve you of the sound of the drill during your annual visit to the dentist. How? The answer is given by the catechins contained in green tea.

If you consume green tea, you will reduce the formation of plaque in the mouth and you will fight the formation of cavities and tooth degradation.

3. Black and green tea contain antioxidants.

Black and green tea contain flavonoids that prevent oxidation and support the reduction of coagulation in the body. Green tea has the highest amount of antioxidants because it is not fermented, unlike black tea.

These antioxidants reduce the risk of heart attacks and help you monitor your cholesterol levels.

 4. Green tea improves physical appearance.

Green tea can become a staple of your beauty habits.

One of the biggest benefits of tea is its natural ability to hydrate the body - unlike coffee, which promotes the opposite because it is a diuretic. That's why you go to the toilet constantly after enjoying a "thirty" at Starbucks.

Tea also contains polyphenols, molecules with strong anti-aging qualities. And if you have acne, you're in luck. Tea naturally lowers stress levels and fights cortisol. Green tea will prevent the formation of acne.

5. Green tea improves cognitive function.

If you have a test tomorrow, do not drink cups of coffee to make sure you are awake and full of energy. Tea can be a much more effective alternative.

6. Green tea reduces the risk of cancer.

While both green and black tea are associated with cancer prevention and reducing the risk of its formation - the scientific statistics that support the effects of tea are amazing.

7. Green tea reduces stress and other ailments.

If you research, you will discover that there is a type of tea for every condition. If you have an upset stomach due to a presentation at work or school, opt for mint tea.

For sleepless nights before an important exam use ginseng. Headache after hours in traffic? Use a combination of tea and lavender.

8. Green tea will improve your performance at the gym.

If you drink a few cups of English Breakfast tea every morning, you will not turn into Arnold Schwarzenegger overnight, but this can help you become like him.

Tea is known for its many physical benefits, one of which is to increase endurance during physical activity and physical training.
